Reviews of Fort Harrison State Park Dog Park
"Every weekend and holiday, weather permitting, Toast and I are at the dog park bright and early."
"This park is amazing. The huge sections give the dogs so much area to roam and explore and play in water. Plus the 3 sections give you options. The vast majority of people here are kind and take care to watch their dogs, it's a good vibe. And the DNR takes excellent care of the park itself. There's also a restroom, water spigots, kiddie pools, picnic tables, a shelter house with a fireplace for winter, and poop bag stations. They're real serious about updated vaccines - your card will deactivate the day after you're due, but they'll remind you that month."
"This place is a dogs dream. My boys love being in the woods and they also like being near water. I had been taking them on some nature preserve trails but they of course have to be on a leash. This place has trails, pond, and other areas with no water...all without a leash. One of my dogs doesn't "play" much. He ends up getting bored at other dog parks so we end up leaving after 20-30min. This place he can explore the trails or just relax in the shade. We usually stay for a minimum of an hour. People even take camping chairs and just make a day of it."
"Paid membership with proof of all vaccines. Best dog park in IN, with woods, trails, a pond and a fireplace. Gated parking lot and 3 sections, outdoor bathroom. Just like in any dog park, be aware of your dog's behavior."
"Definitely the best dog park in Indianapolis! We've been bringing our dog, Sully, here for over a year now and it's always well kept and even has a fireplace for the really chilly days. We love walking around the small trails and our dog loves making new friends and playing frisbee here. Bonus is that most other owners that come here are very aware and will step in and correct their dogs if needed, but they also have two other huge play areas if we need to separate from a rowdy pup."
